“The United States, by and through its attorneys, respectfully files this notice to inform the Court in advance of the May 2, 2024 status conference that, during its trial preparations, the government discovered that the defendant violated his pretrial conditions in this matter on at least two occasions by traveling out of state without providing notice to his Pretrial Services officer, as discussed below.”

“On March 9, 2023, the Court set the defendant’s pretrial conditions in this matter, which included in relevant part as follows: ‘Defendant must notify the Pretrial Services-Middle District of Florida in advance of any travel outside of the district.’ Based on publicly available information, it appears the defendant traveled to Greeley, Pennsylvania in or around October 7, 2023 to attend and speak at the ‘Rod of Iron Freedom Festival.’ Again in or around March 16, 2024, the defendant traveled to Morristown, Tennessee to attend and speak at another iteration of the same event, the ‘Rod of Iron Freedom Festival,'” write DC federal prosecutors in their notice to the court of pretrial restriction violations in the case of Capitol rioter Jesse James Rumson, aka “Sedition Panda” because he wore a giant panda furry costume head while storming the Capitol on January 6th.

The “Rod of Iron Ministries” are a cult of gun worshipping freaks based in the state and a sub-sect of the far-right South Korean Unification Church, aka the “Moonies,” led by the Rev Sean Moon, son of the late Unification Church founder and Jesus Christ-reincarnate megalomaniac Sun Myung Moon (hence “Moonies”), their services featuring a golden, jewel-encrusted AK-47 touted in the aisle.
